This world-famous Roquefort is a noble, all-natural ewe's milk blue cheese from the Auvergne region of France. Papillon (which means butterfly in French) wraps their top-of-the-line Roquefort in black foil to distinguish it from lesser brands. Aged for over 4 months in the natural Combalou Caves, this exceptional Papillon Roquefort is distinguished, first and foremost, by its white curd and the intense blue which generously marbles its wide and numerous cavities. The taste of a good Roquefort is similar, in terms of analysis, to a grand cru wine: balanced and fairly salty, with a big personality. It is great for melting, slightly granulated, and lingers in the mouth. In the mouth, its unctuous and supple texture melts deliciously with a recognizable taste, and leaves you with a powerful and lingering aftertaste.

Since 1906, the Papillon Dairies have been making authentic Roquefort born of the marriage of men and nature. This union of over one hundred years is the basis for the identity of a product whose notoriety lies above all in their confidence in experts. Papillon's confidence is in natural savoir-faire, tradition, and flavor, which all serve to make this Roquefort inimitable.

This is the best Roquefort we have ever tasted. My husband makes wonderful Roquefort dressing with big chunks. We also enjoy it just on crackers. Delicious!

Well worth trying.

Pretty good. Too much curd for me personally, but great tasting 'blue.'

The absolute BEST Roquefort there is

This is the best Roquefort on the market. It arrived overnight, well packaged, and has been enjoyed throughout the holiday season. I also think the pricing was fair.

Excellant cheese

this is not a mild cheese so you use less than the inexpensive ones. Has a very full flavor and aroma. One of the best blue cheese I have had. Using it tonight in a chucky salad dressing, can not wait.

The Roquefort Papillon is outstanding!

This Roquefort is simply wonderful. Serve it in a pear salad or with celery and or crackers after a meal together with a bottle of Arthemis Cotes De Castillon (2005) from Bordeaux. A creamy Roquefort with an unforgettable aroma and taste. Plus, 3 lbs. for this price is hard to pass up.
